Solar Power-ize your Gas Lawn Mower

Who wants to spend four bucks a gallon to mow their lawn Summer is here, so harness the power of the sun and convert your gas guzzling beast into an eco friendly solar powered mower. We’ve got three comprehensive DIY tutorials to guide you.

The first tutorial takes you through removing the engine, installing the electric motor, wiring the solar charger, and more. Read.

The second one simply takes you through the process of converting an electric mower to be recharged with a solar panel attached to the top of the machine. Read.

Finally, the last tutorial uses a solar panel separate from the mower which charges a 12v battery which in turn powers the Dayton electric motor which powers the mower. Read.

I am an eco-researcher and have stumbled across the CMM1200 cordless mower. I really like the mower and feel that it can be used on almost any yard now.

We should all do our part to save the enviroment and encourage the growth of the solar and wind power industries. Cordless electric lawn mowers go a long ways towards these goals. I recently purchased the Black & Decker Cordless Electric Lawnmower the CMM1200. I hope my review will help you make a decision about our future.
